2001: A Space Odyssey screening (2017-Jan-19 @ 7:30 p.m.)

$25The Dryden will screen 2001: A Space Odyssey (Stanley Kubrick, U.K./U.S. 1968, 149 min., 35mm) with an introduction and discussion with film star Keir Dullea.
In writer and director Kubrick's visionary sci-fi masterwork, the themes of artificial intelligence and of human exploration of our solar system, now part of our everyday experience, are treated with prophetic insight through a solemn, spellbinding immersion in the silence of the cosmos: widescreen, the Blue Danube waltz, and pristine imagery from the film's preservation negative are in full display for the kind of cinematic event that fully expresses the motion picture as an art form.
